Yes.

It is called sensor cropping and some cameras do it to allow a change in aspect ratio. 4:3 16:9 etc.

Not rocket science really.

...unless you are harry!

Ummm... that would be a yes.

It doesn't lose image resolution, even if you crop it numbnuts.

You get the same image resolution whether you shoot in landscape or portrait.

Only the image size changes if you crop it.

Duh.

Stop fucking googling if you don't understand what it means.

When you go to watch your video on whatever device you are using the image will be the size of the screen you are viewing it on, it will not be smaller. If you have used a cropped sensor then the resolution of that video will be lower e.g. 480p instead of 1080p and slightly blurrier as a result.

Do I detect from the subtle timbre of your post that you have not been remembering to insert your pink diamond pacifier before logging on to TD?



Don't forget harry as the healing power of the crystal will also help to relax your mind so you can understand complicated concepts like video resolution.

Suggest keeping your pacifier on a piece of string tied to your computer chair so it is always near at hand when you start to feel anxious!

This will also help to avoid nasty mishaps like taking it out when you go to bed and dropping it in the glass with your false teeth

I think you are confusing framing with image resolution,

croping is framing, not downscaling

If you stop taking pictures you will not have a problem, Your great grandfathers got on just fine without taking snaps of every bloody thing !

Do some work, read a book, educate yourself, eat a piece of nice cheese or anything but fritter your life away by taking photographs.

Too many silly people in the world. You'll be dead one day and you'll be sorry you took all those pictures.

And you know you're a dumb c u n t when Buttplug has to explain shit to you.

Great minds think alike !

(or in this case window licking idiots)

Though measuring a stonking 5.5 inches, my lovely Moto G4 can be a bit of a handful

After all this climate change is not real..

Sure but a common definition of resolution w.r.t a captured image is the number of pixels in the image i.e. the amount of raw data in the image. Cropping is used for digital zoom (as well as for Blue's imaginary phone app) and results in a lower resolution image than optical zoom since there is less information in each frame. But I get where you are coming from.

a lot of confusion here, cropping is not zooming and what you were trying to describe is zooming

for a given resolution, zooming will have the "pixelization" effect, framing or cropping will not, it will have the exact same resolution, nothing is lost

so taking a cut of a bigger picture is not downsampling, it has no effect on pixels or the size of pixels. Zooming which is basically stretching on a given "viewport" will result in a lpss of quality for that "viewport" ONLY, but again nothing is lost in terms of pixels, it still has the depth in terms of DPI.

If you take a cut of the "ZOOM" picture, that is stretching the image on a bigger viewport, then it will pixelize

hope that clear things a bit for you,

^^Harry, without your pacifier inserted your frontal lobes are at risk of a catastrophic implosion if the pressure builds up too high on one of your haemorrhoids.

You can get a fake-chinese USB proctologist's endoscope from e-bay to do a brain-scan

Don't forget to use plenty of lube when inserting and set it it to 1080p for the diagnostic recording so your neurologist has as much detail to work from as possible.

You can downscale it to 480p for the YouTube upload.

Good luck and pull gently for the retrieval.

A selfie?
I ain't no poofter
My front camera is permanently covered with a Chiauita banana sticker,
